Not sure who needs to hear this, but...

It wasn't your fault.

You're a good person regardless of what happened to you, despite what your inner demons tell you.

You didn't deserve the abuse you went through.

Your hurt is valid.

I hope your pain eases soon, sweetheart. You've made it so far. Just keep going. It will fade, if you stop revisiting it and punishing yourself. You've got this. I believe in you so much.

Much love, friend.
